A method of playing a wagering game includes providing a modified deck of
playing cards from which all of the picture cards have been removed. Each
player places a wager and is dealt four cards which are set into a two
card front hand and a two card back hand. A player/banker sequentially
compares both front hands and back hands with each player. The ranking of
hands is (1) highest pair, and (2) LSD of the numerical total of the two
cards being closest to nine. Several special sequentially applied rules
result in the player/banker or the other player winning the wager
regardless of the ranking of the two card front and back hands.
